Marathon fundraiser smashes target

THIS weekend’s MOKRUN sees the end of a series of gruelling challenges that army reservist, Robbie Semple, has completed to raise cash and awareness for jailed former paratrooper Billy Irving, smashing his £2,000 target by more than a thousand pounds.

Robbie, a Campbeltown Running Club member, started training in October last year to tackle the inaugural Kintyre Way Ultra cycle race and around that time discovered he had a place in the 2017 Virgin London marathon.
